Youth Provide Nativity Scene

Several youth groups worked together to create this hillside Nativity scene in east Glasgow. The work will continue next year as more pieces are added.

You may have seen the lights on the east side of town near the East Side School. A Nativity scene sits on display for the second year. The scene is a traditional one that was put together by Glasgow's youth.

Several church youth groups came together last year to put the scene together. The driver of the idea was teacher and city council member Rod Karst.

Karst said he saw a Nativity scene on a hillside in California and he thought Glasgow should have something similar. He spoke to several community members for a while, and several churches came together.
